About Brian

With a tournament win under my belt, I bring passion and expertise to every pickleball lesson. I come from a table tennis background since I was 10 years old. I not only work with adults but kids as well. If you have a pickleball addiction like me, I will help you improve any areas that you wish while having fun at the same time.

What students say...

"Brian demonstrates a novel way of teaching by giving me the opportunity to identify my own mistakes based on the content that I learned from him on the spot. This exercise, along with the drills, helps me better understand the concepts that we learned today. If there is one improvement I have to state, it’s that the drop shot adjustments could be introduced better. Give them awareness that the balls can come at different height/different speeds first and then show them the techniques to handle such cases.

Frequently asked questions

What to expect when you take a Pickleball lesson in Santa Ana

The first lesson for a beginner player

S

Coach Shayan

pickleball coach

I start by understanding the player’s current level, strengths, goals, and pain points. We run through some live hitting, serve/return, third shot drops, dinks, and transition play to assess movement and shot selection. From there, I tailor a game plan specific to the player’s needs—whether it’s footwork, shot precision, or strategy.

When working with kids, I keep the lessons high-energy, fun, and filled with movement. I use games and simple challenges to teach fundamentals like paddle control, footwork, and coordination.
